Enlightenment does not come by reading many books…
“Enlightenment does not come by reading many books, obtaining multiple academic degrees, meditating and starving the body under an ancient tree or praying the whole night under the moonlight! Enlightenment rises from within a soul that practices pure mercy, compassion, gratefulness, faithfulness and love in every situation! Because these qualities bring one closer to The Divine! The more closer one is to The Divine by practicing divine qualities, the more enlightened one will become!”
